show review: Mayyors @ The Eagle (4/18)

April 23rd, 2008 by Jeremy Smears

I got to the Eagle just as Traditional Fools started. I’m kind of glad I was wound up about getting to this show because I enjoyed this. They were fun, a party band. I mean, ok, it was just more garage stomp but they were cute, young, sloppy, enthusiastic, catchy and the songs are all super short.

So, Mayyors. This band has no website, is on a label with no website, and their debut seven inch is already “sold out”. I think sold out is an exaggeration, I know it was for sale at the show as I saw that all black sleeve floating around in people’s hands. But still, people were definitely buzzing. The eagle was packed. After the show, within ten minutes of posting the photos I had a spike in traffic. Whatever it is these guys are doing to get their name out there is working.

So what did I think of the show? I liked it. I enjoyed it quite a bit. “I liked this” is actually all I have to say. There are reference points, but my mind is content not to make the connections. Its like I’m stuffed after a big meal, but that doesn’t really help you. I’ll try.

This shit is rock (no roll). You know the sound; hard guitar, screamo vocals, tweaked screachy solos. The band is pretty severe on stage — loud and kind of threatening. John Pritchard (who was in Sexy Prison which is one of my favorite band names) fronts this band, and his antics made me think of the singer from Hank IV. The bassist is aggressive with his bass. The guitarist, Chris Woodhouse, liked to come to the edge of the stage, eyes glazed over, zombie stance, and flatten you with guitar. When he wasn’t doing that he was assuming some other insane position. At one point I saw him in the most severe Ramones stance (it was almost a split). I looked away for a second and when I looked back he was still in that stance, but the guitar was on his shoulders and behind his neck and he was still playing like he was Jimmi Hendrix or something! So, yeah. I liked this. You should totally check them out this Friday when they play the Hemlock.

Eagle Tonight: 4/10/08

April 10th, 2008 by Jeremy Smears

As of the time of this post Sony’s new gay label, music with a twist, had an access denied message up. I guess they’re still in the closet? THATS SO GAY.

Come to the Eagle Tavern tonight for music instead. They’re not in the closet and thursday nights aren’t all about being gay (except for tonight. tonight its all about being gay):

photos: ex-boyfriends at the eagle 9/27

September 28th, 2007 by Jeremy Smears

Thursday night at the eagle tavern is one of my favorite nights in the city. Doug Hilsinger throws a curve ball at the local leather queens by inviting some pretty awesome bands to share the bar. Actually, the leather queens handle it just fine, its all the regualar queens who don’t know what to make of it.

Last night speed queen and ex-boyfriends and a tribute to THE GERALDINE FIBBERS helped kick off folsom street fair weekend confusing queens world wide. I got there late and only got photos of ex-boyfriends. Look!
